the kingdom under the sea
this is a childhood fave of mine, i still love jan pienkowski's illustrations, black silhouettes on a marbled back drop.
last one out, please turn on the light.
these photographs are a small selection from richard nicholson's survey of london's remaining professional darkrooms, a brilliant collection of beautifully shot images.
